Here's my card for Alex. I brayered the back ground and used my Darice giraffe embossing folder on 1/2 of the background. I colored the giraffe but made a huge error so instead of recoloring, I printed a giraffe I saw online that was already colored by Inky Antics. Then I added grass for the giraffe to stand in and the ribbon and the words.

Cute giraffe, the perfect ribbon, and I love the way the sentiment panel is sort of giraffe-spot shaped.
